This Haicheng Clothing Expo, Yimingfang, as a merchant, was also invited.

The felt capes and quilted coats that set off a consumption boom in Haicheng were exhibited at the exhibition, and Xia Jinting's name was marked among the designers.

On the opening day of the expo, Xia Jinting and Gu Que attended together.

The colorful banner of the Mandarin Hotel hangs high, and celebrities of all colors shuttle among them, wearing fragrant clothes and shadows on their temples, making it very lively.

Xia Jinting keenly found that there were many blond foreigners at the exhibition site, as well as many foreign staff who spoke Chinese and English.

But like Yimingfang, there are few real local clothing companies.

Most of the display cabinets are bat wide, fine, and cheap foreign cloth, while the domestic homemade cloth is nowhere to be seen.

Xia Jinting stroked the texture of the foreign cloth and frowned slightly.

The texture of foreign cloth is indeed very good, and it is of high quality and low price. The traditional homespun market has been crowded out and is in jeopardy.

Presumably, the impact of foreign goods is also one of the reasons why Jiang Ji can't support it.

The two walked and watched, and after a while, they arrived at the showcase in Yimingfang.

It is not the first time that the clothes designed by Xia Jinting participated in the exhibition, but this is the one he is most excited about.

He was about to take a closer look when he suddenly heard a sentence in his ear: "Brother Que."

Xia Jinting turned his head and saw a young man in a silver-gray suit looking at Gu Que with surprise.

"It's really you, I just saw the clothes you designed!" The man excitedly pointed to the designer name tag on the side of the quilted coat.

Gu Que introduced to Xia Jinting: "This is Tan Min, the son of my adoptive mother."

Xia Jinting understood that the young man in front of him was Gu Que's nominal younger brother.

"Brother Que, who is this?" Tan Min looked up and down Xia Jinting curiously with a smile on his face.

Gu Que embraced Xia Jinting's shoulder very naturally: "This is Xia Jinting."

Tan Min said with a smile: "Xia Jinting... the name, I seem to have seen it somewhere..."

Xia Jinting pointed to the showcase, and Tan Min suddenly realized: "You are also a designer..."

Tan Min's joining turned the two-person trip into a three-person trip.

Tan Min walked between the two, talking with Gu Que in a low voice.

From the experience of studying abroad to the mood of returning to China, he left Xia Jinting aside the whole time.

Xia Jinting frowned, his sixth sense has always been very accurate, although Tan Min didn't show it on the face, but the details showed his rejection of him.

Xia Jinting looked at Tan Min thoughtfully, and Gu Que's voice came from next to his ear: "What do you want to eat?"

Xia Jinting thought for a while: "Western food."

Unexpectedly, Tan Min disagreed: "I eat Western food every day abroad, and I really don't want to eat it anymore. It's better to eat Haicheng food."

Before Gu Que could speak, Tan Min turned to Xia Jinting: "We can still eat Western food in the future, this time it's up to me."

Xia Jinting agreed.

The three of them booked a private seat in the Chinese restaurant, and as soon as Tan Min was seated, he started talking about the past.

He and Gu Que grew up together, because they have no blood relationship with Gu Que, no one thinks they are brothers when they go outside.

Tan Min smiled and said to Xia Jinting: "I was born with a baby face. When I was young, I walked with Brother Que. People said that I was his little girlfriend."

Xia Jinting stopped drinking tea and looked at Tan Min suspiciously.

The latter laughed heartlessly: "You really believe it? I'm just kidding."

When Gu Que heard this, he shook his head helplessly: "Don't pay attention to him, he's just like this."

Not long after, the dishes ordered were on the table. Xia Jinting was about to pick up his chopsticks when he heard Tan Min say, "Brother Que, you still remember my taste, you ordered all my favorite food!"

Xia Jinting's chopsticks were hanging in the air, and he didn't put down the chopsticks for a while.

"Why don't you eat it?" Seeing that he was not moving, Gu Que personally picked up a chopstick and burned the eggplant for him.

"Brother Que is eccentric, so he won't pinch me." Tan Min's eyes were bent into crescent moons, and he looked joking.

Gu Que also held a chopstick for him.

Xia Jinting looked at the eggplant in the bowl and suddenly lost his appetite.

During the meal, Tan Minque was long and Que was short, talking about many things they experienced together when they were young.

Hearing Tan Min's joyful voice, Xia Jinting didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Gu Que asked.

"It's nothing, I'm sorry for a while." Xia Jinting got up and went to the bathroom.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, since Tan Min appeared, he didn't like boys with baby faces, even though Tan Min laughed harmlessly to humans and animals, Xia Jinting could always feel a wave of hostility.

Xia Jinting has never felt this kind of feeling for a long time.

It's like being coveted by someone who is extremely important to him.

Xia Jinting washed his face in front of the mirror, making sure that his complexion was normal before walking back.

Unexpectedly, not far from the private seat, I saw Tan Min holding Gu Que's hand, with one finger twirling in Gu Que's palm.

"What are you guys doing?!" Xia Jinting hurried forward.

Tan Min seemed taken aback by Xia Jinting's tone: "I'm helping Brother Que read his palm..."

Xia Jinting suddenly relieved himself, feeling deeply nervous.

Seeing him rubbing his forehead, Gu Que said softly, "Tired?"

Xia Jinting nodded.

Gu Que: "Come here first today."

With that said, he stood up with his half arms around Xia Jinting.

But Tan Min's troubled voice came from behind: "Brother Que, I... just came back, and I don't know the way very well, can you... give me a ride?"

Gu Que has a car, so it is not difficult to give it away, but Xia Jinting's physical condition makes Gu Que hesitate.

Xia Jinting: "I'm fine. Mr. Tan is right. We are the host and he is the guest. Naturally, we should give it away."

Tan Min happily got into Gu Que's car, but continued with Xia Jinting's words just now: "What kind of master and guest? I have already graduated, and I have no intention of leaving this time when I come back."

This is the meaning of settling in Haicheng.

Gu Que: "You want to stay in Haicheng? Have you found a job?"

Tan Min shook his head aggrievedly: "Brother Que, I... want to enter Yimingfang."

Xia Jinting's slightly closed eyes immediately opened.

Seeing that Gu Que didn't answer, Tan Min continued: "Brother Que, I studied fashion design abroad, if you give me a chance, I will definitely perform well."

Gu Que: "Yes."

Gu Que's attitude made Xia Jinting raise his eyes in surprise.

That day when Song Kailin wanted to enter Yimingfang, Gu Que insisted on the assessment, but when it came to Tan Min, Gu Que didn't mention the assessment and agreed directly.

This cognition made Xia Jinting feel blocked, simply out of sight and out of mind.

Fortunately, Tan Min's goal was achieved, and he didn't say anything more. When he arrived at his place of residence, he happily got out of the car.

Looking at his brisk back, Xia Jinting tried hard to recall the plot in the book, but he really couldn't remember the plot about Tan Min.

Gu Que is the villain in the book, there are very few descriptions about his people and events, and Tan Min's role is even less so that Xia Jinting has no impression at all.

Right now, it seems that Gu Que is quite tolerant towards this nominal younger brother.

When Xia Jinting was thinking about something, Gu Que looked at him from the corner of his eye.

Gu Que: "In a bad mood?"

Xia Jinting didn't answer.

Gu Que: "Because of Xiao Min?"

This intimate address made Xia Jinting frown.

Gu Que saw it, and said clearly: "It seems that he has such a personality, he is outspoken, what to say, don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Xia Jinting carefully recalled the scene of meeting Tan Min today, at one moment he felt that Tan Min was pointing something, and at the other moment he felt that maybe he was being overwhelmed.

Gu Que: "He is a newcomer, you should take him with you after entering Yimingfang."

Xia Jinting was slightly startled: "You want me to take him?"

Gu Que: "Is there a problem?"

Xia Jinting: "...I think newcomers should pass the assessment when they enter the job."

Gu Que: "I understand Xiao Min's situation. He is studying fashion design abroad, and he still has some basics..."

Xia Jinting was at a loss for words.

At this moment, he truly felt Gu Que's double standards.

Song Kailin had to be assessed when he joined the job, but Tan Min didn't need it. He also studied abroad, so why did he treat him differently.

Seeing Xia Jinting's silence, Gu Que smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, then let's test."

Xia Jinting: "...No need."

Xia Jinting felt that he was probably nervous, and it would be better if he took a rest.

But this uncomfortable feeling reappeared when he saw Tan Min in Yimingfang.

This is Xia Jinting's first return to work after his vacation. All the employees in the design department carefully prepared gifts to congratulate him on his return.

Tan Min was at the end, holding a carved food box in his hand.

He lifted the lid in front of Xia Jinting, and inside was a basket of taro cakes.

Tan Min brought taro cakes to Xia Jinting: "I made this myself, you can try it."

Xia Jinting shook his head and said, "I don't eat taro."

Whether it is the modern Xia Jinting or the original owner of the book, they are allergic to taro and have never eaten taro.

Tan Min froze all of a sudden: "Sorry, Brother Que likes to eat, I thought you liked it too, but I didn't expect..."

Xia Jinting raised his forehead: "...Forget it, you also have good intentions."

At this moment, Gu Que knocked on the door of the design department: "So lively?"

He went straight to Xia Jinting, and put the thermos box in his hand: "I made soup, drink it while it's hot."

As soon as Xia Jinting picked up the spoon, he saw Tan Min stuffing the taro cake into Gu Que's hand: "Brother Que, this is my taro cake, try it."

Gu Que took the plate and looked at Xia Jinting suspiciously: "I remember, Jinting doesn't eat taro."

Tan Min rubbed the back of his head: "It's my fault. I didn't find out the director's preferences, so I made my own decisions."

Gu Que picked up the taro cake and tasted it, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes: "You made this?"

In Gu Que's impression, Tan Min was still that stinky younger brother who couldn't even make a fire, and this cooking skill was not what Tan Min should have.

Tan Min: "Is it delicious?"

Seeing Gu Que nodding, he was overjoyed: "Next time I will do it for you."

Xia Jinting: "Ahem..."

Xia Jinting lost his appetite, took two sips of soup and said coldly: "It's time to work, let's all go out."

Others came out one after another, Xia Jinting raised his eyes and saw Gu Que standing still.

The slender fingers pointed decisively: "Including you!"

Gu Que asked: "You can go out if you want, but tell me what you want for dinner first?"

Xia Jinting flipped through the documents without even raising his eyes: "I have a lot of work on hand and I have to work overtime, so I won't go home to eat."
